"William Neal Moore’s description of his experiences in the criminal justice system - from pleading guilty on the advice of his lawyer to coming within 7 hours of execution to his eventual commutation and release - is an amazing and powerful story. It has had a tremendous impact on the students in my classes at Harvard and Yale...." -Professor Stephen Bright
